Nice site! Little about me. I own a landscaping company on the Outer Banks of NC. Currently have three JD's though one is all but sold. Latest addition to the JD family is a 4310. I would post some pics. but they are all over the byte limit. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Glad to have you!! It is always great to hear from folks who use the equipment for their living. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

You can resize your pics lots of ways. Paint will do it, or another trick is to email them to yourself if your version of windows will ask you if you want to make pictures smaller...

There is a handy dandy little FREE download from www.showyourphotos.com that I have been using for months now with great success. Click on Products then download the Photo Resizer 1.03, it is the free one.

Being able to re-size them is not the problem. Not wanting to re-size them is!

Guess I could save the original and re-size a copy. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

That's what I frequently do.

Good Job, Avery. Look forward to your input! Like to hear about the things you only find out by living with both the utility and compacts. What surprised you about each? Do you have other operators, and what issues does that raise (one preferred, etc...)

Sure like the look of your 5000 with a 49 and 541...

I have a couple of operators, but I do not let many on the 5410. That is my baby! The 4310 is good for tight areas and is fairly strong for such a small pacakage. Much better than the 770 I just sold. I was really disappointed in the 770. It just did not hold up to constant use. The 4310 seems to be much better suited to commercial use. Nothing really suprised me about either machine. I prefer running the 5410 for obvious reasons.
